Hanging this up in my office as I prepare to start my job search

Ducks love my car

I have not been following the absolute latest developments of CSS as closely as I have in the past but this is *already* a major issue for large scale web apps. I always hated when debugging perf issues where all you'd get is a big block of "layout" or "compositing layers" with no deeper insight.

Thanks for the advance notice I guess

Just finished up the campaign to First Light. Was pretty consistently impressed with the storytelling throughout but that high bar it established made me disappointed with the final act(s). It felt incomplete & straightforward compared to the thought & care the story had towards the beginning.

My new toy I got myself to celebrate getting laid off

I told my cats that they needed to increase their adoption of AI or else be at risk of layoffs but this is what they've been doing instead of vibe-coding apps.

Waymos, especially on the highway, still get A TON of attention in the Bay Area. When I turn to look at the cars next to mine it’s not uncommon to see an entire family with their phones out looking back.

Imagine if you showed this post to someone 10 years ago…

interesting that the only word we get from the actual developers of theses games are executive producers and CEOs

In S2E3 of Netflix's One Piece I heard about 5 seconds of the "Whisky Peak Saloon" song and was like oh dip that sounds like Leo P on the sax — and after looking it up it is!

Imagine how insufferable all the vibecoded apps would look like if they were introduced when Dribbble was at its peak

From our awards show three months ago. Congrats to Xbox!

I'm no pundit so this is kind of a shot in the dark — but this shutdown reminds me of Xbox shutting down Tango Gameworks and the common thread between the two is that the teams were "between games" when they were shut down. I think these shutdowns might be more about bad timing :/

this sequence in the U.S. women’s curling match was pure cinema

How autobiographical is Consume Me, Despelote, and Perfect Tides? Don't miss MinnMax's new developer roundtable where the developers dive into each others' games! youtu.be/RhS732KU1kg

Coyote giving no fucks at the GGP

I’m just thankful that @yozetty.bsky.social pronounced my last name correctly

I wanted to make sure this moment between Leo Vader and Jeff Grubb didn't go unnoticed.

EARLIER?

30 minutes in. $80,000 raised. absolutely unbelievable showing of love and support <3

Sorry folks, I only watch Baby Video Essays

look at this cutie

Gamers will see a camera angle that isn’t a shot reverse shot and call it “CINEMA”

For Christmas this year I got my mother, who is originally from France, a French Michelin Guide from 1925 off of eBay and it was a surprise hit! Sounds like she’ll try to follow some of the itineraries listed in there the next time she visits.

Jesus I think there's something up with Github's streaming SSR implementation that is making it completely unusable on my inflight WiFi. It's super slow and the connection gets reset in the middle of the initial stream almost every time leaving me with an indefinite loading state 😡

It should be a crime that the Lumines Arise soundtrack isn't available in its entirety at launch

off to my mysterious and important work

Dispatch is kind of breaking my brain in that it's the first telltale-esque game that's nailed the conversational cadence but it also doing so while being pre-rendered. Makes me curious if AdHoc would be able to take those learnings and apply it to filmed FMV instead of pre-rendered animation.

Had a work boat outing to the Statue of Liberty and got a couple nice shots

It’s a sign

Ordered shoes from Spain and got hit with a ~$100 duty 😡

For the first time in the 4 years I've been doing Friday streams, I will be having a @react.dev Core Team member as a guest. I'm excited to welcome @ricky.fm on to talk all things React. Past, present, future. www.youtube.com/live/3vw6EAm...

Apple *needs* to release an Apple TV refresh because the current processor *cannot* handle the new liquid glass effects

I wish Google/Apple Maps had the option for a navigation mode that “minimizes steep inclines” for when I’m driving through SF

React folks: Id love your suggestions for an example app that stresses context update performance. I’m looking for something bigger than a micro benchmark, smaller than a full production app. Just complex to have a more realistic distribution of time in framework/product logic, ~1kloc

Took the Lotus out for its first road trip — taking a scenic route through Sonora Pass

Here's one for all the game devs out there www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Dug deep today and finally managed my first 5k in under 30 mins!

Haley MacLean won't be attending the MinnMax community meetup this Saturday because US Customs wouldn't let her into the country from Canada because she might appear in a video... Yes, we're also furious at the US government. Send some love to @haleyfax.bsky.social!

I clean all the clutter off my coffee table and Leslie is like “it’s free real estate”
